About "A Whiter Shade Of Pale (Re-Recorded Version)" by Percy Sledge
Percy Sledge drapes his velvet tenor over a re-recorded 'Whiter Shade of Pale,' turning Procol Harum's baroque enigma into Southern soul. The organ swirls like smoke in a dim lounge; beneath the calm, a quiet unease lingers, as if the floor might tilt at any moment.
